  • Association between legal Performance-Enhancing Substances and use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in young adults
    'American Medical Association (AMA)', 2020
    Co-Authors: Nagata, Jason M., Ganson, Kyle T., Gorrell Sasha, Mitchison Deborah, Murray, Stuart B.
    Abstract:

    Here, we examine the longitudinal association between legal Performance-Enhancing Substances and subsequent use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in a population-based cohort of young adults. We hypothesized that legal Performance-Enhancing Substance use in young adulthood would be associated with subsequent anabolic-androgenic steroid use at 7-year follow-up

  • Legal Performance-Enhancing Substances and Substance use problems among young adults
    'American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)', 2020
    Co-Authors: Ganson, Kyle T., Mitchison Deborah, Murray, Stuart B., Nagata, Jason M.
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND: Legal Performance-Enhancing Substance(s) (PES) (eg, creatine) are widely used among adolescent boys and young men; however, little is known about their temporal associations with Substance use behaviors. METHODS: We analyzed prospective cohort data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health, Waves I to IV (1994-2008). Logistic regressions were used to first assess adolescent Substance use (Wave I) and use of legal PES (Wave III) and second to assess use of legal PES (Wave III) and subsequent Substance use-associated risk behaviors (Wave IV), adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS: Among the sample of 12 133 young adults aged 18 to 26 years, 16.1% of young men and 1.2% of young women reported using legal PES in the past year. Adolescent alcohol use was prospectively associated with legal PES use in young men (odds ratio 1.39; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13-1.70). Among young men, legal PES use was prospectively associated with higher odds of problematic alcohol use and drinking-related risk behaviors, including binge drinking (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.35; 95% CI 1.07-1.71), injurious and risky behaviors (aOR 1.78; 95% CI 1.43-2.21), legal problems (aOR 1.52; 95% CI 1.08-2.13), cutting down on activities and socialization (aOR 1.91; 95% CI 1.36-2.78), and emotional or physical health problems (aOR 1.44; 95% CI 1.04-1.99). Among young women, legal PES use was prospectively associated with higher odds of emotional or physical health problems (aOR 3.00; 95% CI 1.20-7.44). CONCLUSIONS: Use of legal PES should be considered a gateway to future problematic alcohol use and drinking-related risk behaviors, particularly among young men

  • human growth hormone abuse in male weightlifters
    American Journal on Addictions, 2011
    Co-Authors: Brian P Brennan, Gen Kanayama, James I. Hudson, Harrison G. Pope
    Abstract:

    In a study of Performance-Enhancing Substance use among 231 experienced young male weightlifters, we found that 27 (12%) reported illicit use of human growth hormone (HGH) or its bioactive derivative, insulin-like growth factor-1. All of these 27 men also reported use of anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) and 22 (81%) met criteria for current or past AAS dependence. Fifteen (56%) also reported current or past dependence on opioids, cocaine, and/or ecstasy. These findings suggest that among young male weightlifters, illicit HGH use has become a common form of Substance abuse, frequently associated with both AAS dependence and classical Substance dependence. (Am J Addict 2010;00:1–5)
